Count the number of "former" intelligence officials on his company's board.
Then search for the many photos of him mouth-kissing his father and son (RIP).
They use both carrots and sticks to control compromised people.
I took mine apart and there were two separate display modules for the 4K screen with ribbon cables I didn't recognize so I just put it back together and stuck in an HDMI streaming stick flashed to LineageOS.
I got one around 2008. They were the best of the non-premium 1080p HDMI screens at the time.
The one I got had slightly better test review scores on display quality than the LG that year. The Sony was 20% better for 3x the price.
It lasted about twelve years and by then a bigger 4K with much brighter colors was half the cost in nominal dollars, so probably 1/4 the cost in real terms.
And by then cheap flashable streaming sticks were available as was pihole and fairly easy outbound NAT rewriting rules to keep the beasts contained.
"I don't need the oil. So you know I'm not there to plunder it"
Funny that every place so far that Trump has "set free" is a significant oil producer - Venezuela, Iran and Nigeria.
Why not freedom for, for example, North Korea?
Or...Afghanistan?
are those Iranian nuclear weapons safely stored in the same place as Saddam's "WEAPONS of MASS DESTRUCTION"?
that would explain why neither have yet to be found
Only Congress can declare a war - it's in the Constitution.
Otherwise it's an excursion, a troop deployment, an armed exercise in spreading freedom & democracy or a spetsial'naya voyennaya operatsiya
Ukraine never had operational control, only physical possession but if they really did give them all up in return for security guarantees, i bet many there wish they'd kept some to use as a reference to develop their own
"Go out in public and shout about how much you hate Trump in any city in America. Now do the same in any city in China, shouting about how much you hate Xi. See how far you get"
agree with you there but will also point out that 1000s were deported for public support of the Palestinian people and 1000s more fired for saying anything negative about Charlie Kirk who was not an elected leader or representative at any level of government
China is not as powerful, skilled, or capable as they pretend to be.
How long did you live there? Were you ever imprisoned there?
"The tool won't be used for evaluation purposes, but is designed to provide a better estimate of employee workloads."
Yeah, specific employees.
Anyway, this is a good point, people can only stare at a screen for so long, unless they're playing video games. Obviously they need to gamify trading. I mean, more than they already have
Seems to be evidence that your joke is too true to be funny.
That is exactly the space I am always trying to inhabit. Sometimes I even get there.
Or how about a higher tax rate if the profits are based on proven lies?
Taxing bad behavior is just another variation of the evil bit, or vice versa I suppose.
I really don't understand why the only two women candidates that Democrats have run have at least appeared to be at the authoritarian end of their party.
There are two main problems with Democrats. First problem, they are not actually left enough. They are solidly in the pockets of big business, they always vote to increase funding to the MIC, etc etc. They are mostly just as addicted to money as Republicans. (On average it costs more to bribe them, which is mildly interesting although it doesn't change anything for us - it's been studied and it costs more in "donations" to get them to vote like shitheels, but they still do it.) Second problem, which is related to that problem: they think they can court the right wing. Well, they fucking can not. They shift right to try to get votes and it doesn't work. They keep going conservative and losing, and they do it with such gusto that it's difficult to believe it's not on purpose.
Harris failed to condemn genocide for both of these reasons, and that is a huge reason why younger voters stayed home. I don't disagree with anything you said, but I still believe that's a huge factor here.
Tell us how you'd fight back against any authoritarian government when you're in their custody?
Surprise your boss. Get to work on time.
